Hi all,<br><br>Currently the re module does not handle signals. I&#39;ve been once a victim of such a case in a real world setup (i.e. the python interpreter seems to hang at 100% CPU&nbsp; and is not interuptible with control c)
<br><br><a href="http://bugs.python.org/issue846388">http://bugs.python.org/issue846388</a> opened 4 years ago contained a patch for this issue (which ofcourse didn&#39;t apply).<br>I&#39;ve updated that patch and added an example regular expression, which &#39;hangs&#39; the python interpreter.
<br>I think this issue should be handled.<br><br>Regards,<br>- Ralf<br><br><br>
